And Here I Am, Blogging From Work Again March 16, 2006

And you all thought the era of blogging from work was over, what with me actually being at a real job. Sorry guys, that doesn’t seem to be the case. Why? Because right now, there’s frankly not much for me to do. I’m chilling at the office waiting for my sponsor to drive me home, after which I’ll chill for a few hours, go out to eat, and then crash as hard as possible. Then on to the first full day of work tomorrow — paperwork, paperwork, paperwork, and then a St. Paddy’s party (green beer has been advertised, no Guinness. Grrr).

It looks like life in I’bad may be very interesting. That is, at least, what it seems like at the moment. Little things are striking, like the huge frozen ham in the commissary, possibly the only piece of ham in all of the city. The co-workers seem great thus far (and have not discovered this blog, though that will probably change in, um, a couple days).

Okay this is boring and my sponsor is clouted out. I promise, better, more interesting posts to come when jetlag isn’t sitting on my (now freshly spiky) head.
